Bug report: on LabVIEW 2011 SP1 and Windows 8 'Open URL in default browser.vi'

[Igor_Titov]

Dear colleagues,

Here is a bug report.

Culprit: 'Open URL in default browser.vi'.

System: Windows 8, Professional. LabVIEW 2011 SP1.

Abnormal behaviour and steps to reproduce:

Above mentioned VI doesn't work when LabVIEW was started with administrator privilegies. And it works as expected when LabVIEW running in normal (non-administrator) mode. 

Looking forward to see this fixed.

Best regards,

Igor Titov.

CLD.

Hi Igor,

Unfortunately LabVIEW 2011 SP1 does not support Windows 8. I tested this behavior with LabVIEW 2012 SP1 on Windows 8 and everything worked correctly.
